  : I feel that whenever I book with you, the owners/managers give us the least appealing room or location. In this case there was a curtain missing which made privacy a bit difficult. The mattress needs to be replaced. The lighting was poor. The cabin was outfitted adequately. I could tell they try. There is no lodge anymore, just cabins, The place is up for sale.

  : Most appliances were broken.
  : Daven haven was clearly sold off in fractional shares. The place has become more akin to a trailer park with most units now being permanent residents. Loud trucks reving, oil changes in parking lot, inoperative cars on blocks, violent dogs left unattended roaming property, unsafe to walk dogs on leash. Drunk neighbors who harass and peep into our windows wanting conversations and attention or genuinely do not understand leaving people alone. Owner is extremely disorganized and failed to communicate basic information like the cabin number. Owner was annoyed we called asking for number. Owner attempted to do everything off the books from booking.com. Overall we are in agreement that the Daven Haven has imploded with the sale. We stayed here multiple times from 2018-2022. This will be our final time.

  : The cabin had an actual kitchen and separate rooms. (Living room, kitchen, 2 bedrooms) The cabin was clean.
  : The property grounds and cabin furnishings are really run down. Felt like a trailer park setting and cabins were furnished with random garage sale purchases. No bath products really provided. No staff anywhere to be seen.

  : We were given a cabin in an excellent location - right next to the main street for Grand Lake. Outdoor deck of the cabin was very nice.
  : No one was at the front desk when we arrived to check in. They left us an envelope with a horrible map that was supposed to show us how to get to our cabin. Map was completely out of date, and we could not find the cabin. Finally went to dinner, and the restaurant staff helped us figure out where to go. No one was answering the phone at the Daven Haven. We needed to use the sofa bed at the cabin, and we could not get it to pull out for the first night. The staff did come over the next day to get it pulled out, but the support was so bad that the bed was unusable. We ended up putting the mattress on the floor. Kitchen was very outdated. Good thing that we did not want to cook much.
